Paint and misc. body work

Ive started sanding and priming on my 84 sc (will post pics very soon) its a very unorthadox method of painting but its gonna have to do. Ive started sanding the bumper, hood, and fender and priming and wetsanding and im very short on time so im gonna sand prim and paint a panel instead of sanding the whole car and then painting the whole car winters coming faster then expected and my car is outside so im in a rush

Re: Paint and misc. body work

Looks good so far. Are you going to fill in those dings around the passenger wheel well?
